Standing backstage, Veronica was still anxiously dealing with the power outage on the big screen when she saw a group of men in suits rushing toward her.
Veronica could not help but be stunned for a moment. Looking at the group of men, she felt her temples protruding, and her heart felt unease.
Sure enough, the man who seemed like the leader of the group waved his hand the next moment. He pointed at Veronica, turned to the men behind him, and instructed, "Take her to see Young Master Matthew."
At once, Veronica felt something was terribly wrong. I screwed up the wedding that Matthew spent 300 million to prepare. To make things worse, I was revealed to be the one who 'kidnapped' Tiffany. All these have put the Kings Family into utter disgrace and made them the laughing stock of Bloomstead. Right now, it seems to me that I'm screwed either way, and only my death can compensate for the loss suffered by the Kings Family.
Suddenly, a voice sounded. "What are you doing still standing there? Run!"
The next moment, Xavier appeared out of nowhere. He grabbed Veronica's hand and fled from the back entrance like a maniac.
"Xavier, why are you here?" asked Veronica as she was dragged by him while running.
"I witnessed this chaos the moment I arrived at the wedding venue after I had finished attending to the company's affairs."
At this moment, Xavier could care less about the loss the video content would bring upon the Kings Family. He was only worried about Veronica, so he rushed backstage as soon as possible. When he saw the bodyguards were about to take Veronica away, he immediately dragged her with him.
"Stop! Don't run! Chase after her!"
"Someone, help me catch her! Hurry! Hurry!”
Both Xavier and Veronica ran at the front while several bodyguards kept chasing after them.
As they ran out from the hall's back entrance, Xavier had spotted his car that his assistant had already parked there.
"Quick! Get in the car!"
Xavier opened the door and hurriedly got into the car with Veronica. They got in the car and left before the bodyguards could catch up on them.
The car drove forward slowly. After only 100 meters, Veronica said, "Xavier, stop the car."
"Stop the car? Are you crazy? Do you know what Matthew would do to you once you got caught?"
At that moment, Xavier felt that Veronica was getting really besotted.
"I did nothing wrong, so why should I run away?"
"You are the planner of this wedding, and you ordered someone to kidnap Tiffany. Not to mention, they exposed the kidnapping video at the wedding. Those are enough reasons for Matthew to tear you into pieces, and it's probably still not enough to relieve his hatred," Xavier said to Veronica while driving.
"Evenyow think I did it?" Veronica leaned on the front passenger seat. Once she had calmed down, she started analyzing the situation carefully. For some reason, she felt that she had been set up.
Upon hearing that, Xavier felt stunned for a moment. He side-eyed Veronica, as if in disbelief. Then, he frowned slightly. "Y-You mean... someone's trying to frame you?"
Xavier had witnessed everything that happened in the banquet hall today with his own eyes. Even he felt that Veronica's actions were absurd and stupid.
Although the exposure of the video at the wedding could make the Larsons lose their pride and dignity, it would also lead to Veronica bringing a fatal disaster upon herself.
Judging from that, Veronica seemed to be acting a bit too reckless.
However, listening to Veronica's analysis now, Xavier felt that things were strange too.
With a gloomy look, Veronica nodded slightly.
